Romantic Hotels in Shimla

The best thing about the hotel is the location - it is nestled in a forest and is quiet and "out of the way." The hot tub is by far my favorite place in the hotel. You can sit in the outdoor hot tub with steam coming off the water while looking out over snowy forest and mountain views. It was breathtaking! The pool area is lovely as well, and the staff are incredible....almost too helpful. The breakfast was amazing every day and in such a gorgeous setting as well. There were yoga activities and kids activities during the day, and I enjoyed reading in the quiet lounges along the side of the hotel. I had a wonderful experience traveling around Shimla and Narkana and the surrounding areas - all set up by the helpful hotel concierge/staff. It was a heavenly vacation away from the bustle during Chinese New Year.

Our stay at The Cecil was a perfect blend of heritage and class, immersed in the serene embrace of nature. From timeless architecture to breathtaking views, every moment felt like a walk through history surrounded by tranquility. The staff truly made the experience unforgettable—friendly, attentive, and welcoming, they made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Their warm hospitality added an extra touch of magic to our stay."

The team right from security, house keeping , F&B front office were full of energy, very helpful and courteous. Impressed to see a global level of services by the hotel.
